OIL-BURNER.

Specification of Letters Patent. l Patented Dec. 28, 1909. I Application filed February l11, 1909. Serial 110,477,294.

To all whom it ma/y concer-"n: i

Be it known that I, HERMAN F. ARENBERG,

' citizen of the United States, residing at Petaluma, in the county of Sonoma and State of California, have-invented lnew and useful Improvenients,.,in Oil-Burners, ofi

which thefollowing isla specification.

My invention relates to a burner for oil or hydrocarbon products, and. means for'4 distributing the heat therefrom within a stove` i 1n operation, `be-1nore or less vaporized, and 65 or other. furnace. l

It consists in the combination of perforated and channeled plates, means rfor introducing the liquid fuel and air mixed therewith, and means for dispersing and distributing the products of combustion within I the furnace proper.

Referring to the accompanying drawings,

Figure l is a perspective view of the invention. Fig. 2 is a transverse section.

As shown in lthe drawingA1s a circular or equivalent disk which may have a substantially flat base, a central opening 2 of considerable size, and an annular trough or channel 3 surrounding the opening.

4 is an inverted cup-shaped circularl disk, the peripheral flange of which fits over the interior annular ange of the channel 3.

These parts of the burner are supported upon and within a foundation' of concrete,

brick, or other suitable' material, as shown at 5, and this foundation lis open, and beneatlrit is a perforated orforaminous plate 6 through which `air is freely admitted into the lower part, of the apparatus; passing up through the foundation, through the in.te

rior opening 2 of the plate A, and thence. it isallowed to pass out through openings 7 which are made vertically through'the inverted cup 4. This cup has transverse grooves or channels 8 made upon its upper surface, and radiate from a central opening extending through the cup and connecting with a supply pipe or passage 9 vthrough which the liquid fuellis admitted; this fnel 4rising through the passage,lows out through -the channels 8, and any excess, after the ap' paratus is in operation, will fall into the annular channel 3 of the disk A.

l0 is a bell-shaped structure having a central hub l1 and from this hub a stem 12 extends downwardly into the passage in the inverted cup 4.

The ,stem maybe rectangular in section,

orof other suitable formso as to fit loosely A55 in the passage, and to allow suiiicient space around it for the passage of the liquid fuel beneath the hub l1, which rests upon the top of thev cup 4, forming a closure to prevent the projection ofthe fuel upwardly.

.'lhbottoin o'f the hub is of sufficiently greater vdiametery than the central opening of the cup 4 so that. the liquid being delivered iiipvvardly will,after the apparatus is its directionwill be changed so that itwill pass outwardly thrpugh the grooves or channelsI 8.`Meanwhile, air admittedy through the base-ofthe apparatus', and through the passages 7, will meet the vaporized fuel y which is thus burned, and the action of the draft will be to throw the.burning` vapor upwardly into the concavity of the bell l0,

which produces an outward discharge of the rounding-flange adapted to t over the flange between the central opening and annular channel of said base said cap having openings through it and having radial grooves in its-surface between said openings;v a bell or cone above the cap having a hub portion supported on said cap, and a fuel supply y pipe leading into the center .of the Acap below' ,l' said hub.

2. Inyan oil buiniiig'device of the char-y acter described, a base having a central' opening, an annularA grooved or channel around 10Q said-opening, a foundation and support having air passages communicating with the central opening of the base, anzinverted concaved cap, the exterior flanges of which overlap the interior flange of the base, said 05 cap having air conducting openings made through it, a central opening and connection by which oil is delivered to said opening,

radial grooves Vor channels located between the air openings of the cap, a bell or cone having a hubv adapted to rest upon the top and center of the cap, and a loosely fitting stem extending Vdownwardly into the Oil conducting passage.

In testimony whereof I have heljelinto set my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses. l
